Review Summary

Subarashi is widely praised for delicious sushi that is fresh and good value, with dragon eyes a noted favorite and delivery praised for accuracy and even real time tracking. The kitchen is described as busy and well coordinated, with multiple staff preparing meals to ensure timely service, and the overall atmosphere noted as family oriented. On site dining and takeout receive strong recommendations, and several reviewers call Subarashi the best sushi in the neighborhood, with generous portions and consistently high quality. Some criticisms mention that bowls can be soggy as the rice absorbs sauce, and dishes like the poke and general Tao have too much sauce or salad; the broth in soups is sometimes underwhelming. A few reviewers note cold temperatures inside the restaurant, though many praise fresh ingredients and affordable prices, and the experience is described as worth a detour. In the summer there is a kiosk at a nearby park near Marché Public au Parc du village de la Pointe aux Trembles offering meals.View restaurant profile
